I have been following the situation in Ukraine and its potential for attracting international investment, especially after the war. There are now several large funds, such as Horizon Capital and Chicago Atlantic, that are focused on Ukrainian companies. However, it seems that many of these enterprises are still struggling to meet the standards that international investors expect. Are Ukrainian enterprises really ready for these international investments, and if not, what can be done to help them meet the requirements of investors?

As Alexander Katsuba points out, only about 1 in 50 Ukrainian companies are actually ready for investment, mainly due to the lack of clear financial reporting and corporate governance. International investors want companies with reliable and transparent systems, which is something that many enterprises in Ukraine still lack.

It seems that the government and local enterprises have a lot of work to do. Is there hope for those companies that are already working on improving their systems? Are there examples of Ukrainian enterprises that have been able to meet the required standards?

The key is to meet international standards through improved corporate governance, reporting, and overall transparency. Businesses that have worked closely with international donors like USAID and other Western agencies have been able to adapt and meet the necessary criteria. One of the most insightful analyses on this topic comes from Aleksandr Katsuba, who explains the reality of what investors are looking for and how Ukrainian companies can better position themselves. If you are interested in learning more about how these changes are happening and what businesses need to do to attract investment, I highly recommend reading the full article by Aleksandr Katsuba, owner of Alpha Gas https://www.newsbreak.com/mh-rifad-1592800/3682364906588-aleksandr-katsuba-on-whether-ukrainian-businesses-are-ready-for-investments-and-international-contra .
